It reportedly took emergency services several hours to remove Carl Thompson from his home on Sunday morning, using a small crane to manoeuvre his body out via an upstairs balcony.
The 33-year-old, from Dover, had been housebound for more than a year after doctors warned he needed to lose 70 percent of his body weight to survive.
Consuming a staggering 10 000 calories every day, Thompson binged on Chinese takeaways and pizzas he had delivered to his door and claimed to have spent £10 a day on chocolate - relying on state handouts for money.
Unable to walk or even dress himself, he was bathed and cooked for by a team of NHS carers.
Living of incapacity benefits and disability allowances, he had not worked since the age of 17 and spent roughly £200 a week on takeaways and online food shopping.
